Greetings from Baltimore!

We are currently in Baltimore, Maryland, for a surprise birthday party for my mom on Saturday. This evening, Drea and I went to the Orioles game at Camden Yard along with my brothers, their wives and kids. Camden Yard is a beautiful place to see a ball game. Here we are with a new friend...


Earlier in the day, we gigged around the inner harbor. The highlight was the "Body Worlds 2" exhibit at the Science Center. This is the exhibit that displays actual human cadavers, stripped to their muscles, nerves, bones, etc. Really fascinating. Drea's been wanting to see this show for several years. As we walked up to the museum, there was a guy painted as one of the Body World cadavers trying to stir up interest in the exhibit. Since Drea is off to medical school, I had to get a shot...

OK, the Body World exhibits are kinda freaky, really. To learn more, check out this story from NPR or this one or these short videos...




What do you think? Disgusting? Fascinating? Ethical? Unethical?
